Abstract
Based on a conjecture of Loughran and the second author, we give an explicit prediction for the leading constant in Malle's conjecture for Galois -extensions of ordered by discriminant, where is the Heisenberg group over . The predicted leading constant is not a single Euler product, but rather a sum of two distinct Euler products. Our methods also give an efficient algorithm for computing the conjectural Loughran--Santens leading constant for many -groups of nilpotency class .
